There will be 100 artists, including favorite Alxis Kovacs of Bethlehem.

Get inked, watch people get inked, learn about tattoos and compete in tattoo contests at the 8th annual Skindustry, the Lehigh Valley Tattoo Expo, Friday through Sunday at the Sands Bethlehem Event Center.

This is the first year at the Sands and organizer Steve Lemak says it offers more space an amenities because of the attached Vision Bar and its location in the Sands Casino Resort Bethlehem.

There will be 100 artists, including favorite Alxis Kovacs of Bethlehem, who appeared on the Oxygen network's first season of "Best Ink."

The event features daily tattoo contests, including Best Color, Best Tribal, Best Replication and Tattoo of the Day. There will be live music in Vision Bar by The DeSilvas on Friday night and The Punk-a-Billy's on Saturday night. Also check out the art show and art auction and more.
